Let’s talk about what would happen if you used a sauna for 14 days. I think it could create a huge change in your overall health.

Saunas have interesting thermotherapy benefits. When you use a sauna, your body adapts to mild stress. Adding mild stress causes your body to adapt and become stronger.

Other things that create mild stress, causing a similar effect, are cold showers, ice baths, fasting, and exercise.

There are a lot of health benefits of sauna therapy, including an increase in certain hormones (growth hormone, noradrenaline, dopamine, serotonin, and prolactin) and much more. But keep in mind that when you use a sauna, it’s crucial to get enough electrolytes in the right balance.

The benefits of sauna therapy:
1. It can help lower your resting heart rate
2. It can stimulate lymphatic flow
3. It can help lower blood pressure
4. It can decrease the risk and intensity of an asthmatic event
5. It increases circulation
6. It can strengthen the immune system
7. It can help decrease all-cause mortality
8. It can decrease pain
9. It can decrease inflammation
10. It may help improve psoriasis
11. It promotes recovery
12. It supports cognitive function
13. It increases insulin sensitivity
14. It decreases ROS (it has an antioxidant effect)
15. It has similar benefits to moderate aerobic exercise
16. It promotes better skin quality
17. It increases autophagy
*It increases melatonin (when using a sauna with infrared light)

I started Keto on June 24, 2022. As of this morning, I'm down 61 pounds!! Thank You Dr Berg and Dr Berry!!I was at 288, I weighed in at 227 this morning!! I started intermittent OMAD a couple of months ago, but I mostly do 2 Meals a Day. I keep my carbs under 50 grams. I use Heavy Whipping Cream and 2 Stevias in my coffee and I also intermittently have Strawberry Cheesecake Fat Bombs to keep my sanity! Lol But, most importantly, I listen to and use as much of the medical advice that this man freely gives!! Dr Berg, you have made such an impact on my life. Thank You from the bottom of my heart!💜

I have been using the sauna after a workout regularly for the last 6 months now. I’m currently doing 25 minutes per session. I split the time in the sauna between lying flat and sitting down. What I find remarkable is the calming effect lying down has on my mental and emotional state. I’ve recently been experiencing high levels of anxiety and one thing that truly helps, where I feel an immediate tangible impact is lying flat in a sauna. Don’t know why exactly, but I highly recommend it. Take a towel to lie on and have a bottle of water with you.

I sauna 5-6 days a week. Love it! So happy to hear about these benefits. Can vouch for the calming & destressing effects

Been using an infrared sauna daily for 4 years. My motivation was heavy metals and parasites detox. This combined with healthy keto and intermittent fasting has helped me to cut down high levels of inflammation, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. Oh and I lost and maintained a 50 lbs weight loss but most importantly I learned it’s not about the weight and while I have been doing OMAD for 2 years I am at peace with food-no cravings. I am 60 and I feel better then in my 20th when I was working out 4 hours a day and on low fat diets. It’s fun to feel great and learn about the body, very causative. Thanks Dr.Bery for all the incredible data. ❤❤❤

I take a sauna every day when I can. Not only does it have the benefits described by Dr. Berg, I also spend my hour or so lying down on my back in deep meditation. I resolve so much anxiety-causing thoughts and genuinely am able to quiet my mind.

Helping lower resting heart rate is absolutely true. I used the sauna on an almost daily basis. I had my regular medical checkups and my physician asked if I was an athlete as my heart rate was 48-50bpm. When I stopped using the sauna, the heart rate went back to 60bpm.

When covid hit I put an infared sauna in my garage and have using it almost everyday for two years. I just started combining it this last summer with cold plunging just love it. Thanks Dr. Berg you are a blessing to the Internet!

Yes, I did this for 4 months 6 days a week for a candida cleanse. I did it for 20 minutes following my the first sweat on my brow. I built up to doing it longer. There was a local spa that had a nice steam, dry sauna etc.
This is awesome for adverse effects of hysterectomy. I slept so much better and it helps with joints etc.
It's also excellent for skin.
Love the video - this is very interesting and verifies my experience.
The Native Americas had sweat lodges long ago too.

I'm super grateful that the house we bought last year had a built in sauna room inside the house. It's the type of Sauna with the rocks not an infrared. I use it a lot in the winter. I turn it on before I go for a run and when I get back it's all set to go!!!

[jinnabeauchemin]

We have been using infrared lights in the early morning everyday as soon as we get up and infrared sauna in the evenings 3-4 times a week for nearly 2 years. We are at our 60s and 70s, have never been feeling this great for a long long time. Thank you Dr. Berg for what you have done for all of us!

People with heart conditions are cautioned about saunas...
AND - I have actual experience of sauna treatments killing off Lyme disease. Have to hold your body temp to 102 or higher for 20 minutes or more, do a slow cool down. Twice a week for six weeks then weekly for 3 months. Repeat if you are still testing positive or showing symptoms...

I moved to Sweden about 8 months ago (from the US). I've been using the sauna and going for cold dips into the sea for the last 8 months 2-5 times a week. I swear this is a ritual I will keep up the rest of my life. I feel so excellent every time after a sauna and cold bathing session. I typically spend about 1 hour between the sauna and the sea.

Dr. Berg is a gem 💎 His free information is always 100% better than swallowing tons of pharmaceutical products.

Please consider doing a Red Light / Near-Infrared (NIR) Light Therapy topic sometime!

[kembaroberts]

Wow. I literally started using the sauna for two weeks now and I think I’m addicted! I absolutely love it. Best sleep every!

[Melanie-lemw]

I started using the sauna 3 years ago and it’s been life changing!!☺️

[joycee]

Just started using whirlpool followed by sauna to help my workout recovery. I’m 64 and slim… doing resistance training and interval training to put on muscle mass and reshape my body. I’ve really been pushing it and increasing my weight and reps. The effects of the whirlpool and sauna on my recovery are outstanding. It has relieved the pain and stiffness I normally have for the two days following a hard workout. I feel amazing!!! Highly recommend it. Didn’t know about all of the other benefits. Thank you Dr Berg!!!

I love the thumbnail Dr. Eric!!!! I couldn't stop laughing 🤣 but I loved what you said about the Sauna because I take in liberty to go every week for about 15 to 30 minutes a day 5 days a week after a 3 hour workout at the gym after working a long 8 hour shift 💪🏽
